Resumen This method requires a minimum of sample treatment and has suitable sensitivity and selectivity for chlorophenols in the urine of workers exposed in the production of phenoxy herbicides and of pentachlorophenol. The phenolic compounds are separated by steam distillation, extracted into isopropyl ether, and analysed by gas chromatography directly, using flame ionization detectors. The detection limits in urine range from 0.1mg/l urine for phenol to 1mg/l for the di- and triphenols. The naturally occurring metabolites cresol and 4-heptanone are also isolated and can be quantified by this method.
